This isn't the place to discuss this.

vstring solved the problem I was having at the time and I don't know if its
still an issue. Might have been using gcc-4.8.x at the time and I think
std::string implementation changed since then. I have no reason to switch from
using vstring, I just want those who work on gcc to also consider updating
vstring with the same type of fixes for this warning.
